And January 2012 is half over and we are NOT caught up yet!! In fact, lots to tell you about holiday adventures and snoops…so let us begin. Barbados again…what can I say. Thank goodness for its aesthetic generosity and all that oh-so-pleasant decay to amuse us.

This particularly chatel house had Nicky slamming on the breaks, children flying across the seats, cars swerving…a silver box, bathed in sea salt, weathered and worn.

Oh so pretty in its simplicity, oh so pretty in its shab.

Shwitter would have adored this don’t you think? A merzbau fit for a mermaid?
